    As I have no life and this week sucked big time at work I have been going on a fight watching binge this week. I think I have covered most of my favorite fights over the last decade or more. Hopkins/Tito, Tito/Vargas, DLH/Vargas, DLH/Quartey (golden era of 147 lbs. best ever), Mares/Marchiano, Garcia/Thurman, Broner/Garcia, Murat/Dorticos, Linares/Demarco, PBF/Corrales, GGG/Canelo etc just to name some.
    I was wondering what are your favorite highly technical bouts. Maybe someone will recommend a gem I never heard of before. Thanks.

    I really enjoyed Cotto-Trout. They kept going back and forth.

    Depends on what skills etc. 3 I enjoy but all different types of fights or different reasons Were


    Calzaghe vs lacy (hype around lacy beast left hook joe complete written off and absolutely destroyed him ruined his career)

    Pacman vs diaz (again a 1 sided destruction but even tho pacman heavy fav to win how would he fare stepping up weight would his power speed still same. It was even faster his shot selection was beautiful and brutal and God what heart and balls on diaz shocking his corner didn't pull him out he deserved every penny he earned that evening and his interview after is genius )

    Jmm vs Juan diaz. At first jmm wants try outbox younger diaz he thinks can blast jmm out badly hurts him and as usually old fox himself jmm regroups pulls out everything he has get a massive victory

    ODLH versus SSM I. High level of skill between both combatants, with a lot of action. Goes to show one not need be a defensive wiz to be considered highly skilled.
